Total internal reflection diffraction grating in conical mounting
نویسندگان
چکیده
The main conditions and parameters for obtaining surface relief total internal reflection diffraction gratings in conical mounting are presented. Calculated and experimental investigations reveal that there are ranges of grating periods, incidence angles, diffraction angles and gratings depths for which such gratings could be obtained, both for TE and TM polarizations. With optimized grating parameters the diffraction efficiency of the total internal reflection diffraction gratings can be greater than 90%. 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Subdiffraction resolution in total internal reflection fluorescence microscopy with a grating substrate.
We propose a fluorescence surface imaging system that presents a power of resolution beyond that of the diffraction limit without resorting to saturation effects or probe scanning. This is achieved by depositing the sample on an optimized periodically nanostructured substrate in a standard total internal reflection fluorescence microscope. The grating generates a high-spatial-frequency light gr...
متن کاملHigh-efficiency, high-dispersion diffraction gratings based on total internal reflection.
We report a new class of high-dispersion immersed diffraction gratings for which the reflective nature of the diffraction is provided by the phenomenon of total internal reflection (TIR) regardless of grating tooth shape. Thus, the component can be fabricated from a single dielectric material and requires no metallic or dielectric film layers for high reflection diffraction efficiency. With the...
متن کاملTotal absorption of light by lamellar metallic gratings.
Lamellar gratings illuminated in conical (off-plane) mounting can achieve with suitable optogeometrical parameters (grating profile, angle of incidence and wavelength) a total absorption of light for any polarization provided there is only the zeroth propagating order. A detailed analysis shows that electromagnetic resonances are involved and their nature strongly depends on the polarization. W...
متن کاملDiffraction properties study of reflection volume holographic grating in dispersive photorefractive material under ultra-short pulse readout
Based on the modified Kogelnik diffraction efficiency equation, we study the diffraction intensity spectrum and the total diffraction efficiency of reflection volume holographic gratings in photorefractive media. Taking photorefractive LiNbO3 crystal as an example, the effect of the grating parameters and the pulse width on the diffraction properties is presented under the influence of crystal ...
متن کاملPolarization-independent two-port beam splitter grating under second Bragg incidence angle with usual duty cycle
Based on the total internal reflection (TIR) under second Bragg incidence angle, polarization-independent two-port beam splitter grating etched in fused silica is described for the usual duty cycle of 0.5. There are three diffraction orders in the reflection: –2nd order, –1st order, and 0th order. The grating depth and period are optimized using the rigorous coupled-wave analysis (RCWA) in orde...
